The drunk man, thought to be between 20 and 30-years-old, also kissed two of the girls on the cheek.

Police say the incident happened just before 9pm on Friday, April 11 when the man approached the three girls as they sat on a bench.

Initially the man started a conversation with the girls – aged just 16, 14 and 13 – before a small, black car stopped nearby – the suspect approached the car, returning and asking the girls if they wanted a lift.

After they declined, the man kissed two of the girls on the cheek and attempted to do the same to the third, before making off in the black car.

Police are keen to speak to anyone who may have seen the man or the three girls around this time.

Anyone with information should contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

The man is described as being of a ‘short, chubby build, with a local accent,’ and short brown hair. He was reported to have been wearing a dark blue jacket or top, with dark jeans and black training shoes with a ‘shiny pattern’ on them.
